I've been here before but apparently something changed and my login 'vanished'. It was quite a while ago so I'm not surprised.

Someone asked how the image was made. It was originally made in Lightwave 8 but now we're up to version 11 and things have become much better. Now all the cubes are instances with a random offset on the Y-axis. Much easier to handle. I guess there's around 6-8 million polygons in there since the boxes are subdivision surfaces to get the corners very smooth.

I'm thinking about playing a bit around with the image, but if anyone have ideas please don't hesitate to write them here.

Working on the red ball in the blue environment. I found some issues with raydiosity splotches where the scene is dark so I'm refining the resolution so I can get them removed. This takes a little while but afterwards it's much better and renders quicker.

Thanks Englyst. Well still you haven't made it and I'm remembering what DemonHellraiser said...

I know I'm asking too much, but I will say what the best wallpaper (well, video-wallpaper) would be for me: The one of the video changing colors, but using your darker blue and .. around the ball the phrase "Only Amiga makes it possible" turning around the ball... Yes, I know, just a dream... but would be the best DreamScene movie ever.

I have done this a few times myself. It's really fun to do So far I haven't done any such work recently unless we're talking the new C64 from Commodore. Which really isn't a C64 ...

What you made the model of the c64x for them..?
I know there using your Amiga ball in blue cos i have there cosv ( I don't use it no more its just mint with a new skin),I hope you gave them permission to use it in there os..
